@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
Just sit back
And tell me
I'm a liar for this
Don't roll your eyes
Rewind
This happens
Way too many times
So sit back
And tell me that your
Tired of this
I know
I'll grow up someday
But it's two a.m.
And I'm too high and dry
And I won't come down to
So when I come back
I won't say a word
I know
I've said this before
Don't speak, liar
No we won't talk
We won't say a word
I know
You've heard this before
Don't speak, liar
Sit back
And tell me why
I'm so prone to this
Do you think I'm fond of
Getting you and letting you down
And I'll get mine soon
So when I come back
I won't say a word
I know
I've said this before
Don't speak, liar
No we won't talk
We won't say a word
I know
You've heard this before
Don't speak, liar
And if the story ends here
I can't be surprised to find
Your eyes are open wide
And that I have inspired you
And when you come back
Don't say a word
I know
You've said this before
Don't speak, liar
No we won't talk
We won't say a word
I know
We've heard this before
Don't speak, liar
Don't speak, liar
Whoa-oh
Don't speak, liar
And tell me
I'm a liar for this
Don't roll your eyes
Rewind
This happens
Way too many times
So sit back
And tell me that your
Tired of this
I know
I'll grow up someday
But it's two a.m.
And I'm too high and dry
And I won't come down to
So when I come back
I won't say a word
I know
I've said this before
Don't speak, liar
No we won't talk

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield

I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
